Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cutter control apparatus for controlling the position in which a workpiece is cut by a cutter, and more particularly to a cutter control apparatus having a correction device for automatically correcting the cutting position to make uniform the cut dimension of a piece cut by the cutter.
- the cutter control apparatus as illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises a workpiece dimension detector 1 for detecting a dimension of a workpiece to be cut, a cut setting unit 2 for setting a reference dimension to be cut, a cutter control circuit 3 for comparing the detected dimension from the workpiece dimension detector 1 with the reference dimension setting from the cut setting unit 2 and for actuating a cutter of a cutting machine (not shown) when the dimensions compared are in agreement, a cut calculating circuit 4 for calculating the dimension of a piece actually cut by the cutting machine under the control of the center control circuit 3, and a display unit 5 for displaying the actual cut dimension as detected by the cut calculating circuit 4.
- the cutter control circuit 3 actuates the cutter to cut off the workpiece to the set dimension.
- the actual cut dimensions tend to disagree with the (reference) cut dimension settings, and are distributed in a certain range depending on a number of factors.
- the operator samples the dimensions of a plurality of cut pieces as calculated by the cut measuring circuit 4 and displayed by the display unit 5. The distribution of the actual cut dimensions is then determined by way of a statistical method, e.g. using a frequency table. If it is judged from the dimension distribution that a particular cut dimension is abnormal, then the operator corrects the control of the cutting position in the cutter control circuit 3 to avoid the production of a defective cut piece.
- the present invention is intended to eliminate the foregoing drawbacks of conventional apparatus. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a cutter control apparatus having a correction device for more quickly detecting an abnormal cut made by a cutting machine, automatically correcting the cutting position control in the cutter control apparatus when the central value of the distributed (actual) cut dimensions disagrees with a reference cut dimension setting, and quickly notifying the operator of when the fraction of defective pieces exceeds an allowable fraction, whether due to abnormal cutting or other abnormal conditions.
- a primary object of the invention is to carry out a quality control so that the cut dimension can be made uniform by using statistical errors obtained by statistical analysis.
- the correction operation is carried out once a lot (defined by the number of cutting operations).
- FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a conventional cutter control apparatus
- FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a cutter control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating the operation of the cutter control circuitry of FIG. 2.
- FIGS. 4A and 4B illustrate a flow chart, somewhat more detailed than that of FIG. 3, showing in more detail the control operations of the CPU of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of an example of the circuitry contained in the Thyristor Control Circuit of FIG. 2.
- a correction device (circuit) 6 serves the function of determining the distribution of actual dimensions cut by a cutting machine and delivers a cutting position correction signal to the cutter control circuit 3 when the central value (mean value, for example) of the distributed dimensions deviates from a cut dimension setting.
- the correction device 6 also emits or displays an alarm when the fraction of defective pieces determined by the dimension distribution is greater than an allowable fraction, thereby notifying the operator of an abnormal condition.
- the correction device 6 includes a cut dimension calculating circuit 4 for calculating an actual dimension of a cut made by the cutting machine, and a distribution computing circuit 8 for programmably processing the cut dimension information using a statistical method such as, e.g., a frequency table or a control chart, to determine the distribution of actual cut dimensions.
- the computing circuit 8 generates a center abnormal signal when the central value of the dimension distribution deviates from a cut dimension setting, and issues a signal indicative of an excessive fraction of defective pieces when the fraction of defective pieces determined from the dimension distribution is larger than an allowable fraction.
- the correction device 6 further comprises a correction-value computing circuit 9 responsive to the center abnormal signal for computing a correction value for a cutting position of the cutting machine and supplying a corresponding correction signal to the cutter control circuit 3, and an alarm generator 10 for generating or displaying an alarm signal in response to the signal indicative of the excessive fraction of defective pieces.
- the operation of the cutter control apparatus of the foregoing construction is as follows.
- the cutting position of the cutting machine is controlled by the cutter control circuit 3 in the same manner as in a conventional machine. More specifically, the cutter control circuit 3 compares a workpiece dimension as detected by the workpiece dimension detector 1 with a reference dimension setting entered from the cut dimension setting unit 2, and operates a cutter or the like of the cutting machine to cut off the workpiece when the detected and set dimensions coincide with each other.
- the cutter control apparatus of the invention is different from the prior operator-controlled apparatus in the manner of detecting and dealing with an abnormal cut dimension.
- actual cut dimensions are calculated by the cut dimension calculating circuit 4 and stored in a memory circuit 7.
- the distribution computing circuit 8 then prepares a frequency table, for instance, to find a distribution of the actual cut dimensions.
- the distribution computing circuit 8 issues a center abnormal signal to the correction-value computing circuit 9.
- the correction-value computing circuit 9 is responsive to the center abnormal signal for computing a correction value for the cutting position, and delivering such a value as a correction signal to the cutter control circuit 3.
- the distribution computing circuit 8 may, for example, compare the distribution of the actual cut dimensions with a control limit in a control chart. If the fraction of defective pieces is found to exceed an allowable fraction, then the distribution computing circuit 8 issues a first indicating signal indicative of an abnormal fraction of defective pieces to the alarm generator 10. There are various possible causes for such an abnormal defective fraction, including a deviation of the distribution center from the cut dimension setting, as described above, or an extension of the distribution range beyond an allowable range of cut dimensions. However, the distribution computing circuit 8 issues the first indicating signal irrespective of the causes thereof. In response to such a signal, the alarm generator 10 produces or displays an alarm signal, letting the operator know immediately that the cutting machine has encountered an abnormal condition. Based on this first indicating signal, the operator can now ascertain whether or not correction of the cutting position is appropriate, and if necessary can shut off the cutting machine to prevent any further defective products from being produced.
- FIG. 2 The structure and operation of FIG. 2 is now described in more detail with reference to the flow charts of FIGS. 3, 4A and 4B as follows.
- a workpiece dimension detector 1 operates the detect a workpiece running speed and a workpiece running length per a certain period of time by counting an output pulse signal which is produced by a pulse oscillator operable to produce 1500 output pulses per one revolution of a measuring roller, the measuring roller directly contacting the running workpiece. This output signal of the detector 1 is applied to both a cutter control circuit 3 and a cut measuring circuit 4.
- the cutter control circuit 3 comprises a CPU, a thyristor control circuit for carrying out a follow-up control in response to the output of the CPU, a shearing blade drive motor and a pilot generator.
- the dimension measuring circuit 4 operates to calculate the actual cut dimension of a workpiece by counting the output pulses produced by the pulse generator in the detector 1 during a period defined by the cutting operation completion pulses. Assuming that the pulse generator generates 1500 output pulses per one revolution of the measuring roller, the actual cut length is expressed as (n/1500) ⁇ l, where n is the number of pulses generated during the period and l the circumferential length of the measuring roller.
- the cut length display unit 5 operates to display the cut dimension in a digital mode.
- the memory circuit 7 is adapted to store 200 data sets, each representing the actual cut length, and to be reset at the end of the correction operation.
- the computing circuit 8 starts its calculating operation.
- the circuit 9 operates to compute, and send to the CPU, a correction value of [predetermined (preset) value-x].
- the alarm circuit 10 operates to generate an alarm when the computed value exceeds the limit allowance value of the ⁇ n and x.
- FIG. 5 is an illustration of the circuitry which may be contained within the Thyristor Control Circuit of FIG. 2.
- SC AMP designates a speed control amplifier operable to control the rotation speed of the drive motor M so as to coincide with that determined according to the output of the CPU.
- CC AMP designates a current control amplifier operable to control the current flowing through a main circuit. The current is detected by an AC current transformer ACCT and then converted to a DC level signal to be applied to the current control amplifier.
- VC AMP designates a voltage control amplifier operable to control a voltage appearing at the main circuit. The voltage is detected and converted to a control level signal by a voltage sensor VS.
- GPG designates a gate pulse generator operable to receive the output of the VC amplifier to carry out the gate phase control to thereby control the drive motor M.
- the calculation results are automatically displayed in a display device so that an operator can visually judge whether or not a correction operation is required.
- a correction operation is not carried out for each cutting operation, but, rather, a correction operation is carried out for each production lot in which the predetermined number of cutting operations is accomplished. If no correction is required, a control inhibiting signal can be easily issued in the first control step (1) of the flow chart (FIG. 4A).
- an actual cut dimension can be easily controlled statistically.
- the cutter control apparatus has a correction device
- other control apparatus such as a compressor control apparatus or a machining device control apparatus may be equipped with such a correction device.
- the display unit 5 may comprise a dot matrix display unit, a CRT monitor display unit, or a computer display unit.
- the cutter control apparatus of the present invention includes, in addition to a conventional cutter control apparatus, a correction device for quickly detecting an abnormal cut made by a cutting machine, for automatically correcting a deviation from a cut dimension setting, and for notifying the operator of an increased fraction of defective pieces due to any abnormal conditions, including an incorrect dimensional cut.
- a correction device for quickly detecting an abnormal cut made by a cutting machine, for automatically correcting a deviation from a cut dimension setting, and for notifying the operator of an increased fraction of defective pieces due to any abnormal conditions, including an incorrect dimensional cut.
